Being a good maker of clean sublime cars, like the A6, A7 or A5, Audi, presented a new concept model, that defines well the future of the company, as well as its actual place in the market. In the LA Auto Show, Audi presented the Audi Prologue Concept, an astonishing 2-doors coupe, that made a lot of people talk about.

“We don’t want to be too up-to-date, which two years later is already outdated. We want to stay really modern and display the latest technology, but not in an over-complicated way. Stay logical, because design that survives, it has a kind of logical function.” says Parys Cybulski, exteriour designer.

The futuristic design of The Prologue, puts it ahead of its competitors, somehow. It has a larger center grille, a lower front end, to give it sportier looks, it sits on 22-inch alloy wheels, it has all-wheel-drive, and it will be the base of the future coming Audi’s. It is said that it will be competing against the S class coupe. One more noticeable feature is the lights, both front headlights, that are using, wait for it, Laser technology, and it is a way to gain weight, and be futuristic, and the rear 3D lights, a long bar that goes on all the car width.

Underneath the hood, it has 4.0 TFSI engine, that produces 605 bhp, be careful AMG GT, someone has a small engine and a lot of power, and this someone is from Germany, like you. The Quattro technology, permits Audi to place a more forward engine, with a lot of space to the front and rear wheels. It has a developed exhaust system, that will make a serious noise.

What about the interior then? As you can see, it is classy, elegant, it is everything Audi is about. There is a large central screen, touch display, through which you can communicate with the car and the passenger, in fact, the screen is divided between them, the passenger now can give an idea about the roads, and other things, and send them to the driver via a switch. It reminds us of the spirit of the rally. It is a Gran Turismo based design, that offers both luxury and sportiness, but no extravagance.

Its production hasn’t been confirmed yet, therefore there is no price on it, but one thing is sure, Audi is back for the game.
